Important Vehicle Specific Notes and Recommendations

Toyota 2003 to 2009 4Runners are extremely popular platforms for daily drivers, weekend wheelers, expedition use, and desert racing vehicles. Each of these applications require different suspension attributes and Filthy Motorsports works directly with each customer to make sure the spring rates, valving, and overall configuration of the suspension is in line with their needs and expectations. With that in mind, there are a few important things we need to consider when building a well tuned suspension system:

1. The front suspension geometry is allows for about 8" of wheel travel leveraged to about 4" of movement on the coilover. For the best performance, the coilovers should be set close to mid-shaft or about 2" to 2.5" over stock height. For added movement, an aftermarket upper control arm (UCA) can be used to allow for an extra 3/4" of down travel when the coilovers are built with the extended travel option.

2. DO NOT use coilover pre-load to lift the vehicle over 2.5". The factory geometry works best at about 2" over stock and lifting it beyond 2.5" will cause the CV shafts, steering linkages, tie rod ends, and control arms to run at excessive angles that will reduce ride quality and component life. If you want more than 2.5" of lift and excellent performance, you will need an aftermarket lift kit.

Complete Suspension Upgrade Recommendations

Improving the performance and handling of a 2003 through 2009 4Runner can be done in many ways on many different budgets, however, it's always best to not spend your hard earned money twice to get your desired results. With that in mind, Filthy Motorsports recommends choosing one of the following options:

1. Best Performance on a Budget: [ $2,425 Delivered ]
If you don't have a lot to spend and your 4Runner will be your daily driver, we recommend these King coilovers up front and King shocks in the rear with factory front upper control arms and factory rear springs.

2. Best Trail Runner Performance: [ $2,910 - $3,120 Delivered ]
For those that want the best performance off-road and on the trails, Filthy Motorsports recommends these King OEM coilovers up front built with extended travel and paired with SPC Upper Control Arms. In the rear we recommend 1.5" to 2" lift springs paired with these King rear shocks. If you plan to add a significant amount of weight in the form of bumpers, armor, and gear, we'll increase the coilover spring rates as needed.

3. Best Desert Racing Performance on a Budget: [$3,630 - $4,0655 Delivered ]
Building a race-race ready desert vehicle can get very expensive very quickly. Luckily, on a relatively affordable budget, the 4Runner can be made to exceed the capabilities of most drivers off-road and in the desert. For moderate to aggressive desert runs, we recommend these King OEM coilovers up front built to extended length with compression adjusters and paired with Camburg uni-ball upper control arms. For the rear, we suggest 2.5" or 3" lift springs, 2" bump stop spacers, and custom length King OEM rear shocks with compression adjusters.

4. Race-Spec Long Travel:
If your driving style or needs require running down logging roads, forest roads or through the desert at speeds over 60mph for extended periods of time, Filthy Motorsports recommends looking into a full race-spec long travel suspension system with coilovers, bypasses and hydraulic bump stops. Contact us directly for details.

Remember, all orders are treated as custom orders and we will review the spring rates, valving, and configuration to make sure they not only fit the vehicle, but also match your expectations and goals.

Free Spring Exchange Program: All King OEM Coilover Kits are covered by the Filthy Motorsports Free Spring Exchange Program. While we always do our best to select the proper spring for your vehicle, if the ones we send you settle the vehicle too high or too low, let us know and we'll swap them out for you.

Servicing, Tuning, and Rebuilding
All OEM upgrade shocks and coilovers are hand-built with the same parts as all of King's other Performance Race Series shocks. They are completely serviceable, tunable, and rebuildable to last a lifetime and it only requires a few simple hand tools, a few hours, and the appropriate King replacement parts from Filthy Motorsports. If you prefer not to do the work yourself, you can always bring (or send) your shocks to us and we will service them for you.

I received my shocks, and due to my excitement, I had to get them installed the same day. Like you suggested, I checked the Schrader valves and everything seemed to be in check. I also didn't touch any of the settings, I literally took them out of the box and put them on the vehicle. The install was super easy and I got it done in record time. I have to say, they made a BIG difference. Interior body panels and toolbox have never been so quiet. You were correct, taking corners and hitting potholes was effortless, everything feels well balanced and planted. I can't wait to hit the trails after my alignment. Once again... thank you for the time and effort that you put into my order.
